Presiden's wild wife novel Chapter 68

Grandpa George blushed in embarrassment. He waited till Elena stopped laughing, then said to Logan, “Good boy. Can we get in now?”

Logan smiled, “Of course.”

Elena wiped the tears because of her big laughter and turned to the parrot. It was so adorable, standing in George’s arms. It didn’t fear her and flew to her shoulder, repeating, “I like you; I like you; I like you!”

Elena stiffened and didn’t move even a little, afraid that it would fly away! But she waited and the parrot seemed to want to be near her. She then started walking and got into the villa.

George smiled. “The parrot grew up here. But I’ve never seen that it likes someone so much. you are the first.”

“So what’s its name?” Elena led the parrot to standing on her palm as George did.

“Dove.”

“Dove?!” A parrot was named Dove? Elena tried hard to hold back her laughter.

George knew what she was thinking and answered, “Dove was so silly at first. It just clucked and couldn’t imitate any words. I thought it was a fake parrot!”

Elena smiled again and played with Dove with her fingers. And the little thing pecked slightly on her finger and used its head to touch her hand, showing its great affection to her.

“Grandpa George, Logan! You’re here!” Yolanda appeared suddenly and said to them with a smile.

But she ignored Elena on purpose. George frowned at her and said, “Where is your manner?”

Yolanda was reluctant to call Elena but she had to. “Hello, Elena!”

Elena wasn’t annoyed and answered. “Hi, Yolanda. I have a little gift for you.”

Elena passed the envelope to Yolanda. She took it and pretended to be surprised. “Thank you so much! You are so generous!”

She opened it and stopped smiling after seeing the check with Jacqueline’s signature.

Elena said with a smile. “You seem unhappy? You don’t like my gift?”

“No, no!” She denied and now started to look at Elena really carefully. Elena was smarter than she thought.

Grandpa George didn’t know what was happening between them, but blamed Yolanda for showing such a unhappy look. “Just take it and Thank Elena. It’s so nice of her to prepare a gift for you. But you missed their wedding just because of a fashion show in Paris!”

“Grandpa George!” Yolanda was holding his arm and explained for herself., “I didn’t mean it! It was a rare opportunity for me!”

“Save it and grow up. If you are free, you should learn from you brother and work hard!” George took the chance and tried to persuade her.

“Dad, you misunderstood her. Yolanda wants to work hard but she got no voice in the company. What can she do?” Jacqueline happened to hear this and defended her daughter.

Grandpa George was unhappy to hear this excuse and rebuked, “She should earn this herself and stop dreaming of relying on our family. She can’t just work as a manager without any experience. If she is incapable, who will respect her? Logan has earned all these himself!”

Jacqueline didn’t know how to talk back. While Yolanda said softly. “Grandpa George, I just graduated and I need some time to get used to it. I promise I will work in the company as an intern soon!”

Hearing her words, George felt much better and nodded in satisfaction.

Jacqueline took the chance and proposed. “Speaking of this, Logan’s company is recruiting interns, right? Yolanda, why not have a try?”

George didn’t rush and asked Logan, “Logan, what do you think?”

“If you like, Grandpa George.” Logan didn’t refuse this time.

But Yolanda took this as Logan’s approval. So, she was happy and gave him a hug, “Thank you, Logan, you are so nice to me!”

But Logan showed his detestation about her touch so obviously. Yolanda had to let go of him and stood quietly.

“Logan, Elena, come and play chess with me.” Grandpa George wanted to look for some fun.

While Elena felt nervous about playing chess with him. If she lost the game, she wouldn’t be happy. But if she won, George would definitely be unhappy.

But Grandpa George was excited and insisted. So they had to follow him.

Now Yolanda and Jacqueline were left on the first floor. Yolanda stopped faking smiling and threw the envelope to Jacqueline. She picked it up and opened it. “I gave it to Elena earlier. Why is it here?”

“She gave it to me as a gift!” Yolanda sat on the couch and said angrily, “That woman really pissed me off! I want to tear her face into pieces!”

While Jacqueline was so happy to get back her money and repeated at ease. “Yes, tear her face into pieces.”

“Stop it! Thanks to you, I have to work as an intern now! An intern! Come on, that was so humiliating!”

“But you proposed it yourself, didn’t you?”

“I was forced by you!” Yolanda was so angry looking at her mother. Now she totally understood why she always lost to Logan. Such a silly woman!

Looking around to confirm no one was eavesdropping, Jacqueline tried to comfort her, “Come on. Don’t be mad. Even if you are an intern, no one will look down upon you since they all know you’re Logan’s sister.”

“But…”

“Listen, once you work in his company, you can find the chance to trap him and destroy him once for all! You should know, the closer you get to him, the easier for you to find his weakness! What’s more, he won’t be there all the time. Who knows what you are doing, right?”

Yolanda thought her mother’s words were right, and felt much better now.

Jacqueline held her hands tightly, “Yolanda, you are all I get! I couldn’t depend on anyone else but you. Don’t disappoint me!”

“I got it.” Yolanda nodded perfunctorily. But no one knew that she was planning something evil.
